[quote=Anonymous]How is daytime sleep? Do you follow awake windows to the letter? And how is feeding during the day? Do you know how much milk baby is getting? Be militant about daytime sleep for 2 straight weeks, stop feeding to sleep, make sure he is good and full of milk all day long, and try drowsy but awake. Does soothing baby cribside help? Try to avoid picking up to soothe, but you can be present, touching baby, until they are deeply asleep. Do this for naps and nighttime waking. Eventually, slowly shorten the time you are present and soothing to get you to drowsy but awake stage. Give baby a lovey, the kind that's like a square of muslin fabric, no beads for eyes. At 8 months he will not suffocate himself with it, and he will like to have something to snuggle. If daytime sleep is sorted out, you have a better chance of night time sleep chunks happening too, if not a full 12 hours. [/quote]
